In the Heart of Darkness

“Hear your general!“ , he shouted and so he began:

“Now go forth comrades into the heart of darkness

Where you shall find floods of blood and piles of flesh;

And you will feast upon them.

They will come running towards you like a pack of hounds

 But you are stone, with heart of gold and prepared to sacrifice.

It is not a question of victory or defeat; it is now a test between courage and cowardice.

It is the question of your dignity and loyalty.

We may be outnumbered, but we have the zeal,

 And something that will rival thousands of mere flesh and mortality,

The fact that we fight together, as brothers, as equals.

Now march forth into the heart of darkness,

Hand in hand, shoulder by shoulder.

The objective is clear and the time is near.

Now march forth into the heart of darkness;

March forth into the hallowed halls of legend. 

A game of life

Hear Ye ! Hear Ye! and play the game of life !

T'is a game of marvel, wonder and rife !

yes you and you! , the little boy in blue, come and join the ride !

Enter a world full of challenge, for food, shelter and care

But beware;  it'll start easy but later you might feel a tad uneasy

For you will compete against a world, full of obstacles and people against ya' !

T'is the race for position and reputation !

You feelin' scared you say ?!?  But you haven't heard the reward ?

a time of enjoyment ! , pots of gold, and nobody looking at ya twice to steal y'er loot.

and for the victor of victors,

A day in Paradise, full of lush and green, cascading rivers of heavenly beauty !!!

So boy, don't think,  and hitch a ride !

or else,  make way for the one on your side..........
